Zitat: Kingston thought of everything when it comes to designing an SSD drive for the notebook market at large. The drive has adequate performance, but it is also designed to fit inside an enclosure to attach externally to a notebook computer as an external drive. The choice is yours whether you want to install it internally into a computer or notebook or use the external enclosure. At the end of the day, the Kingston Notebook Replacement drive is a SSD drive with all of the positives you could want and is available online for under $300 making it a good fit for those wanting a SSD drive without paying the high price of some others on the market that may offer higher performance but cost more. The Kingston 128GB Notebook Upgrade Kit is available at most e-tailors and many PC DYI centers.

Zitat: Kingston’s SSDNow V Series kits, available in 128GB and 64GB capacities, offer almost instant performance gains and power consumption reductions on existing desktops and laptops – but at a price. The price of SSDs are tumbling, but IDE and SATA storage is

Zitat: There is no disputing that the new SSD storage devices are the wave of the future, and Kingston has done a solid job of bringing a variety of these new products to the market. This SSD drive is geared for the mainstream user and even though it’s still a bit pricey, it is well affordable to those who value the integrity of their information. The V series is not quite as fast as he M Series drives, but it also sells for a lot less therefore making it more affordable to the masses that want this type of media security, but do not have the finance to buy one of the faster more expensive units. The V Series 128GB drives have a price of around $249.00 US, and this falls well behind the $400.00 drives that are circulating around at the moment. None of the rumored issues of the JMicron controller causing drive stuttering was seen here, and in all fairness JMicron has been making many firmware updates to correct any previous generation problems associated with SSD devices. Overall this is a very good product, that although a bit slower than some of the other SSDs we have tested, is still faster than any hard drive available and offers the same ruggedness as any other SSD. Also coming in at a price point of $249.00 at the time of this review gives it a broader appeal to those wanting the quality and secure storage of an SSD, but still have a limited budget. Not quite an Editor’s Choice, but a Hot Product nonetheless.
